Title: Funny Seecamp size comparison

Maybe some ivories! :)

I fear that the recoil of the DE50 would reduce old ivory to a handful of expensive debris. I've narrowed the choices down to three. Half of the enjoyment is the contemplation in these matters.

The ivories would be for dress mode; then there's the silver. :)

BLING ALERT, Brenden! 8)

The sterling silver grips on this little G32 added three Troy ounces to the weight of the piece.

As I figure it, sterling grips for the DE50 would add about a pound to its weight. Hell's bells, the thing already weighs about 4 and a half pounds, which is about all I can control with one hand. I think aircraft aluminum will be the material of choice. :-\

That's what I get for guessing. :) Sounds like a good choice. 8)
